New interim management service for the business continuity sector

Published 6 August 2008

One result of a disaster may be injured and traumatized employees who need time away from to office to recuperate; it may be relatively easy to replace a filing clerk, but about a manager? London-based company offers qualified temps for business continuity missions

Where there is a security need, there is a business opportunity. Just ask London-based AiM: The company offers a new interim management service offered in the United Kingdom, designed to fill temporary staffing gaps related to business continuity. Two main areas are covered by the service:

AiM can provide business continuity and risk practitioners to cover for existing business continuity staff members who leave the company or are temporarily unavailable for work (due to long term illness, for example)

AiM can provide interim managers to fill post-incident staffing problems. After an incident or disaster people can be affected in many ways. For some the traumatic effects of an incident may mean that a period of time away from the business is required. In the worse case, staff may have been badly injured or killed. Building AiM’s interim management services into a business continuity plan means that any post-incident staffing requirements can be quickly filled. The roles needing protection could be executive or operational.

AiM says that its interim managers hit the ground running and because they are only used for as long as you require them they represent a true ‘switch-on switch-off’ service. AiM offers all types of agreement from active contracts to retained dormant contracts.
